To examine the process of spermiogenesis in the Korean red-backed vole, Clethrionomys rufocanus regulus, the seminiferous epithelium in the testis, was studied by trasmission electron microscopy, and the following results were obtained based on the morphological characteristics of cell differentiation. 1. According to the fine structural differentiation, spermiogenesis was divided into Golgi, cap, acrosome, maturation and spermiation phases. Besides, these phases were sub-divided into two steps : early and late phases respectively, Thus, the spermiogenesis of Clethrionomys rufocanus regulus was divided into a total of ten steps. 2. In the changes of the chromatin, the chromatin granules began to be condenced in the late Golgi phase, regularizated at maturation phases, and a perfect nucleus of sperm was formed at the spermiation phases. 3. The sperm head had the falciform, and the formative period of sperm tail began to be develop in the early Golgi phase and completed at the spermiation phases. 4. In the morphological features of spermiation phases, the spermatid of early spermiation phase was divided into three types : (1) A-type spermatid contained cytoplasmic droplets in the neck region and middle piece, and the mitochondria was irregular, and arranged around the axoneme. (2) B-type contained cytoplasmic droplet in the middle piece only, and the mitochondria are arranged the center of axoneme regularly, and (3) In the C-type spermatid, the arrangement of mitochondria was regular, and was contained cytoplasmic droplet in the neck region only. In the late spermiation phase, only the sperm head was surrounded by cytoplasm of Sertoli cell or the matured sperm just before the spermiation from the cytoplasm of Sertoli cell.

The aim of this study was to investigate the egg development and the color change of Amphiprion melanopus, by the live food and thyroid hormone. After fertilizing, it took 168 h until hatching. The size of hatching larvae were $3.5{\pm}0.3$ mm, and some individuals had small yolk sac. As reaching the particular age, they underwent the color change (metamorphosis) - Days after hatching (DAH) 10: black, DAH 15~20: the 3 white stripes appear, DAH 30: the dorsal & the caudal white stripe begin to disappear. DAH 90: body color become red and orange, adult: cinnamon body color and a white stripe on head. - The group fed enriched Artemia with Tigriopus japonicus grew the faster than with only Artemia. The fin coloration of the one fed the only T. japonicus has a vivid red and orange color. $T_3$-treated group (4 ppm) grew the faster than the others (0, 2, 6 ppm). The size of the 6 ppm group was the smallest. The results suggest T. japonicus can be used as a supplement with rotifer and Artemia for the juvenile development and coloration. $T_3$ is considered to be involved in the metamorphosis and color formation of Amphipirion sp.

The inherent strain method is known to be very effective in predicting the plate deformation by line heating. Traditionally the inherent strain regions have been determined from the temperature distribution and the phase transformation regions(Ac3) of welding experiments. Since the phenomena of line heating are similar to those of welding, the experimental results under the same welding conditions have been applied directly to line heating analysis. The results cannot, however, reflect the effect of heating pattern and plate thickness. Besides, water-cooling in the actual heating process can alter the steel's phase to martensite and shear plastic deformation occurs during the transformation. In this study, the experimental measurement of temperature distribution was substituted with a transient heat transfer analysis using FEM so that we could obtain the temperature distribution according to heat flux models of the heating pass. In order to consider plastic strains occurring additionally under phase transformation, inherent strain regions were assumed to be limited to the eutectoid temperature(Ac1). Using the regions, plate deformations could be predicted to validate our method and the results were in good agreement with the experimental ones

The effects of transformation temperature and mechanical properties by thermal cycle of CuZnAl shape memory alloy with a small of misch metal and Zr contents were investigated. The addition of misch metal and Zr was very effective for reducing the grain size. After solution treatment, the specimens were post-quench aged or step quenched at $100^{\circ}C$ to $350^{\circ}C$ for variation of Rockwell hardness value. It was found that the Rockwell hareness value was very increased at $200^{\circ}C$ and $250^{\circ}C$. The fracture strength and ductility have been significantly increased with the increase of misch metal conten when tensile tested below $M_f$ temperature. Also, the fracture strength has been more increased in the case of post quench aging treatment than that of the as-quenching treatment. Aging of the $\beta$-phase decreases the $M_s$ temperature, but that of the martensite phase increases the $A_s$ temperature. The change in $A_s$ temperature with post-quench aging can be attributed to recovery of order in the $\beta$phase. The hystersis of transformation temperature ($A_s-M_s$) has an increasing tendency by thermal cycles.

티타늄에 있어서 주요 침입형 원소인 산소는 결함을 일으키는 원인으로 산소함량을 줄이는 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 최근 가장 많이 이용되는 탈산 방법은 칼슘 및 칼슘염화물의 높은 산소 친화력을 이용하는 것이다. 칼슘염화물 플럭스를 사용하여 칼슘을 용해하고, 티타늄과 반응한 탈산생성물인 칼슘산화물을 플럭스 내에 용해시키는 방법이다. 이러한 방법으로 티타늄 와이어 및 시트 내 산소를 저감한 연구가 보고되었다. 티타늄 탈산의 제일 큰 구동력은 티타늄 내 산소원자의 확산이다. 티타늄의 탈산온도가 1,155K 이상으로 증가하면 hcp에서 bcc 구조로 변태되는데 이러한 구조에서 산소의 확산은 더 활발해진다. 실제로 티타늄의 변태온도 이전에서는 확산속도가 낮아서 큰 변화가 없지만, 1,273K 고온의 bcc 구조에서는 확산속도가 빨라서 그 이전에 비해 100배 이상 빠르게 원자 이동이 일어나는 것으로 알려져 있다. 하지만 이러한 탈산 방법은 티타늄 원재료가 벌크 형태에서 주로 연구되었으며 티타늄 분말에 대한 탈산 연구는 보고된 바가 많지 않다. 이는 높은 탈산온도에서 칼슘의 용해로 인한 분말의 건전한 회수가 어렵기 때문이다. 이러한 문제를 해결하기 위해 본 연구진은 칼슘 증기를 이용한 비접촉식 탈산 용기를 제작하여 티타늄 분말을 변태온도 이상에서 탈산하여 1,000ppm 이하 저산소 티타늄 분말을 회수하였다. 칼슘을 이용한 티타늄 내 산소의 제거 메커니즘을 깁스자유에너지와 각각의 분압에 의해 설명하고 있다. 가장 일반적인 설명은 티타늄 내 산소가 탈산온도에 따라 확산하게 되며 이러한 산소는 티타늄의 표면에서 티타늄 산화층을 형성한다. 이때 탈산제인 칼슘의 높은 산소 친화력으로 티타늄 산화층은 분해되어 칼슘산화물을 형성한다. 이러한 과정으로 티타늄 내 산소가 제거되는 것으로 알려져 있다. 하지만 많은 탈산 연구에도 불구하고 대부분의 연구 보고에서는 탈산 전후의 산소 농도 변화만 측정하였으며, 실제적으로 티타늄 탈산 전후의 표면산화층의 변화, 티타늄 내부의 산소농도 변화 및 격자 변형에 대한 연구는 보고된 바 없다. 따라서 본 연구는 1,000 ppm 이하 저산소 티타늄 분말 제조에 있어서 탈산 전후 표면 산화층 및 내부 산소 농도 등을 분석하여 탈산 거동에 대해 관찰하였다. 본 연구에서 비접촉식 탈산용기를 이용하여 칼슘 증기에 의한 탈산에 의하여 1,000 ppm 이하 저산소 티타늄 분말 제조하였고, 탈산된 분말을 티타늄 원재료와 비교하여 표면 산화층, 격자 변형, 내부 산소 농도 등을 분석하여 탈산에 따른 산소 거동을 살펴보았다. 탈산된 티타늄 분말의 표면 산화층은 원재료 대비 73% 제거되어 약 3nm로 줄었음을 확인하였고, 또한 표면 산화층 감소뿐만 아니라 티타늄 분말 내부에서도 원재료보다 산소 농도가 감소하였음을 확인하였다.

For fine control of operating temperature of shape memory alloy, we investigated the effect of thermal teratment of shape memory alloy with the impurity kind. The martensitic transformation temperature in a Cu-17.25Zn-15Al and Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Ag/Fe was measured using electrical resistivity as a function of quenching temperature. Order-disorder phase transition temperatures in parent phase were measured and kind of transition were distinguised by DSC(differential scanning calorimeter) with heating rate variation. And structual changes were studied with XRD. For the Cu-17.25Zn-15Al shape memory alloy, the order-disorder phase transition temperature, $T_{B2}$ and $T_{L21}$ was 809K and 610K and for the Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Ag and Cu-17.25Zn-15Al-1Fe specimen $T_{B2}$ and $T_{L21}$ was 794K and 610K, and 803K and 613K, respectively. In all the specimens, quenching from near $T_{B2}$ leads to an increase in martensitic temperature, whereas quenching from near $T_{L21}$ leads to an decrease in martensitic temperature.

The testis and the epididymis of sexually mature male bats were examined to investigate the process of spermiogenesis of Korean long-fingered bat (Miniopterus schreifersi fulignosus) using electron microscope. The ultrastructural findings were analysed on the basis of Lee's method (1992). Especially, we focused on the acrosome formation. The results are as follows: The spermiogenesis of the Korean long-fingered bat can be divided into ten phases on the basis of ultrastructural differentiation; three "Golgi" phases of early, mid and late stages, two "cap" and two "acrosome" phases respectively composed of early and late phases, one "maturation phase and two "spermiation" phases of early and late phases. The axoneme of sperm in the cauda epididymis is composed of nine outer dense fiber and a central singlet. The number 1, 5, 6, and 9 outer dense fibers are larger than others. In the Golgi phases, small vesicles are separated from Golgi vesicles and then appear to fuse into a large vesicle, and finally it contacd with the outerside of the nucleus. It suggests that proacrosomal material could be made in the cytoplasm before the Golgi vesicle formation and then it could be transferred into the Golgi vesicle and condensed more and more, and finally form acrosome, just as Lee;s suggestion (1992).m acrosome, just as Lee;s suggestion (1992).

The structural change and magnetic properties of mechanically milled Fe-N and Mn-Al alloy powders have been investigated by XRD, TEM, VSM, $M\"{o}ssbauer$ spectroscopy and inelastic neutron scattering measurements. During milling of ${\gamma}'-Fe_{4}N$ powders, and fcc ${\gamma}'-Fe_{4}N$ phase is transformed to a bct ${\alpha}'-Fe(N)$ phase by stress-induced martensitic transformation, being accompanied by an initial increase in saturation magnetization. During annealing the bct ${\alpha}'-Fe(N)$ nanocrystalline phase which is obtained by mechanical grinding for a long time, an ${\alpha}'-Fe_{16}N_{2}$ phase partially appears as an intermediate phase at 673~773 K, causing an increase in saturation magnetization. During milling of Mn-45, 70 and 85 at.% Al mixed powders, Al atoms are partially solubilized into an ${\alpha}-Mn$ phase. The Al supersaturated ${\alpha}-Mn-type$ phases change from paramagnetic to ferromagnetic : the saturation magnetization is 11 emu/g for the as-milled Mn-70 at.% Al powders. Moreover, by removing almost all Al atoms from the as-milled Mn-85 at.% Al powders using chemical leaching, the saturation magnetization increases up to 36 emu/g. The above bct ${\alpha}'-Fe(N)$ and ferromagnetic ${\alpha}-Mn$ type alloys are the magnetic materials found for the first time, by using the present mechanochemical process.

Population viability analysis of a Gold-spotted pond frog (Rana chosenica) population at Cheongwon-gun, Chungbuk, in South Korea was conducted and we proposed several suggestions for effective conservation and re-introduction of the species. Simulating a developed model over 1,000 times predicted that the population will exist over 30 years with a relatively low growth rate of 0.113, but with a high probability of extinction as 81.1%. Population growth and extinction probability were the most greatly depended on the rate of successful metamorphosis. In the case of outbreak of amphibian diseases such as Chytridiomycosis and Ranavirus, the population will be easily extinct within 4 years with 100% probability. In a habitat of which carrying capacity is 200, to successfully re-introduce an extinct population, it is initially needed to put 100 individuals of which 83% is males and its age structure is normal-distributed. If we additionally conducts artificial supplementation of 10% individuals every 2 years from 4 years to 10 years after initial reintroduction, the population will become a stable with 0.297 growth rate and 0.290 extinction rate. Our results are the first case of amphibian population viability analysis in Korea and could be used to develop effective conservation and re-introduction plans for endangered Gold-spotted pond frog.
